Timeout Interval

After a selected period of no input from the keyboard or the TravelPoint, the system
automatically turns off the display and/or enters a low power mode-called Auto Suspend
mode-which is similar to the Standby mode invoked by pressing the Stndby (Fn-F4) keys.

However, in the auto suspend mode, you can reactivate the computer by any TravelPoint
movement and by pressing almost any key (the Shift key is recommended because it does
not cause any inadvertent action when pressed by itself). In the Standby mode, you can
reactivate the computer only by again pressing the Stndby (Fn-F4) keys.

The Timeout Interval item sets the time delay period. The values are 1, 2, 5, 10, 15
Minutes
, and Always On. The default setting is 2 Minutes.

Timeout Action

This item selects if only the LCD turns off (the Backlight Off setting) after the selected
Timeout Interval, or the computer enters the low power mode (the Auto Suspend setting).
In the Auto Suspend mode, the LCD turns off and the Cm enters a low power mode. On
ac power, the action is Backlight Off even if Auto Suspend is selected.

Pressing any key on the keyboard-preferably the Shift key-returns the computer to full
operation. Auto Suspend is the default setting.
